Abstract. Coordination graphs offer a tractable framework for cooperative multiagent decision making by decomposing the global payoff function into a sum of local terms. Each age...
Abstract. Applying multi-agent systems in real world scenarios requires several essential research questions to be answered. Agents have to perceive their environment in order to t...
